The Rise of the Black Plain

Chapter 1831 God!

?

Later that day, some members of Minos' party received defensive or offensive artifacts from this temple.

Unfortunately, not all of them were compatible with the artifacts in the area, so they ended up with nothing.

However, Harold had been successful and obtained a low-level grade-4 shield, which was extremely important to him.

One of Minos' wives had received armor, and two of the Demigods in Forrest's party had received medium-level grade-4 weapons.

Forrest tried for over an hour to move the large axe from its position, but after nearly exhausting himself, he could barely shake the large weapon.

In the end, he gave up, as many had done in the past when passing through this area.

Finally, Minos had a chance to test his skills with this challenge!

While Forrest tried to pick up another item in the area, Minos borrowed some levels from Gloria and activated his Soul Avatar, placing both hands on the handle of the weapon and then forcing everything he had into it in an attempt to manipulate it.

As he did so, Minos felt the chaotic energy from the giant bones vibrate in his being as his muscles contracted violently, growing and tearing through his spiritual clothing.

The veins in his body quivered as they appeared on his now extremely thin skin. His face turned as red as a tomato, and sweat dripped from every pore on his body.

Minos suddenly opened his mouth and screamed, causing the surroundings of the weapon to shake as the spiritual energy there became highly disorderly.

Seeing this, Forrest momentarily stopped what he was doing to look at Minos, noting the power of Emperor Stuart when he could concentrate on one thing.

For several reasons, Minos could not demonstrate high combat skills at his current level. 

First, Demigods generally had complete sets of Golden-grade techniques. Even though some of them had achieved this later in their lives and had changed techniques, which weakened them, these people still had excellent fighting skills.

Second, creatures that could reach level 90, such as beasts, were very talented beings with special characteristics, which gave more "weapons" to his potential enemies and decreased his efficiency.

Third, the difference in power levels between the levels of the 10th stage was ridiculous. For example, the difference between level 90 and 91 was greater than the entire cultivation of a level 88 cultivator!

Minos was officially at level 83, so he was suffering a lot to improve his combat skills, although he was still advancing with relative ease compared to the Sages and Demigods.

But now, instead of facing an opponent, he was trying to master a weapon!

Weapons, no matter how strong or special their abilities were, did not pose the same challenge as conscious living beings capable of thinking for themselves!

More importantly, the test was not about strength but about understanding cultivation.

As Minos was demonstrating everything he had, and his body was glowing with the fusion of the Indestructible Body and the Divine Seal, the large axe suddenly shook and rose two centimeters from its original position!

"What?" Forrest exclaimed upon seeing this, realizing that all the mighty Spiritual Demigods who had tried to master this weapon for countless years had all failed and lost to a young level 83 Sage!

Minos felt the weapon move and made a terrible expression as he tried with all his might to remove it from where it was stuck.

Blood began to ooze from his pores, and Minos screamed even more, trying to lift the weapon and quickly end his suffering.

If he could get that weapon, a high-level Demigod of his force could have a proper equipment in the future!

'I have to obtain it! This weapon is so close to me! I can't give up now!' He thought as he felt pain all over his body.

Seeing this, Minos' wives felt worried about seeing him go so far for that weapon.

"Minos..." Isabella muttered as Harold looked at him with narrowed eyes.

At that moment, a half-dark, half-golden silhouette began to form behind Minos' body as the Spatial Kingdom ring released some of its invisible aurae in one of his hands.

'Let me help you a little!' A voice rose in Minos' heart before this half-dark, half-golden silhouette pushed his back with a gentle touch.

Feeling this, Minos suddenly opened his eyes, and a golden glow came out of them. In an instant, he felt his strength increase to the point where he could lift the gigantic axe in one motion, despite this being even bigger than he was.

As he raised the weapon over his head, Minos continued to scream, but now his sounds carried a power that made even creatures kilometers away from where he stood looking in his direction in amazement.

"That aura..." One of Mairin's experts looked in astonishment at where Minos was standing.

At the same time, Forrest's eyes twitched as he stepped backward, feeling an unmistakable aura coming from where Minos was standing.

"Go... Go... God!"

He was not the only one to feel it. Everyone in that part of the Ancient Dragon Spatial Kingdom suddenly felt a level 100 aura covering Minos' body, holding the weapon in the air.

The mouths of the women in Minos' group fell open, but before anyone could say anything, the silhouette behind him became even denser, changing shape until it turned into a huge man.

Minos continued to hold the weapon in the air. Yet, he looked to the side and saw a black-haired man with golden scales in the shape of clothes, 2.5 meters tall and very muscular, appearing behind him.

"Young Spiritual Sage, congratulations on achieving 100% compatibility with me. 

After millions of years of waiting, someone has finally passed my challenge. 

Let's begin the inheritance!" 

An elderly voice broke out from that spirit form as the temple's surroundings changed, with the appearance of dense, dark, egg-shaped walls that quickly covered the entire space up to 3 kilometers away from Minos.

'Inheritance?' Abby looked at the man and remembered the inheritance from the Goddess of Life.

However, this was not a simple inheritance from someone at level 99. This was an inheritance from a true God, someone who once was at level 100!

Not only that, this was not the inheritance of an ordinary being!

As they stared at this man in shock, the entire group watched his body transform again, this time into a gigantic creature whose origin they all knew.

A dragon!
